TB Aware in India
As a pilot program in the Tibetan community of Northern India, TB Aware uses a children’s book to teach Tibetan children how to prevent the spread of TB. “TB Aware” provides basic information about TB through colorful and engaging drawings and words to raise children’s awareness about TB. The book describes the symptoms of TB, it teaches how to minimize the spread of the disease, and it describes how the disease can be treated and cured. Our goal is to distribute “TB Aware” to every child in the Tibetan community living in exile.

Future Projects
Translated into other languages with drawings that represent the culture in which it is aimed at, “TB aware” can be a powerful tool in the battle against the devastating impact of Tuberculosis. Through a partnership with Soft Power Health, our next book will be aimed at educating the children of Uganda.
